GST Antibody #2622
| Applications | Reactivity | Sensitivity | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| W IP IF-IC | All | Transfected Only | Rabbit |
Applications Key:
W=Western Blotting
IP=Immunoprecipitation
IF-IC=Immunofluorescence (Immunocytochemistry)
Reactivity Key: All=All species expected
Specificity / Sensitivity
GST Antibody detects transfected GST fusion proteins.
Source / Purification
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing rabbits with a GST fusion protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and GST affinity chromatography.
Western Blotting
Western blot analysis of extracts from untransfected control cells (-) and transfected cells overexpressing GST-Bad (+), using GST Antibody (left) and Bad Antibody #9292 (right).
IF-IC
Immunocytochemical staining of cells expressing GST-Bad protein (left) or cells without transfected protein (right), using anti-GST antibody.
Background
Epitope tags are useful for the labeling and detection of proteins using immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation and immunostaining techniques. Due to their small size, they are unlikely to affect the tagged protein's biochemical properties.
Glutathione S-transferase (GST) is a widely used fusion partner, since it provides both an easily detectable Tag and a simple purification process with little effect on the biological function of the protein of interest. Numerous vectors containing GST-Tag have been developed for both prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems over the past decade (1-3).
